This thread will serve as news for releases and distro arrivals for Fragile Branch Recordings - a small label, distro, and tape duplication shop in WV. Our primary focus is black metal, funeral doom, and some post-rock and folk-y type stuff.

----------
UPDATE: 8/6/2015

We're running one last shop sale for up to 30% off an entire order, including all of our latest distro addidions. We're offering 20% off orders of $20 or more, 25% off $45 or more, and 30% off (and free US shipping) on orders of $75 or more! The coupon codes are listed on the checkout page. Sale will run through 8/14, then the shop will be closing temporarily while we move.

Also, I've put up a lot of items from my personal tape & CD collection for sale on Discogs, including stuff from Panopticon, Xasthur, Impetuous Ritual, Trist, and more!

Preorders are now available for the Maugrim 7" lathe cut EP! This EP features two haunting, depressive black metal tracks; and is limited to 23 copies in a screen printed jacket. The sleeves will be printed in about a week, and preorders will be shipped out soon after that. You can listen here.

We also have copies of the Horn - "Naturkraft" DLP on the way from Pagan Flames which are also available for order and will ship once they arrive (within the next week or so). This album is a classic of nature-themed black/folk metal that's not to be missed!_________________Fragile Branch Recordings

We're running a sale through the coming week on most of our distro stock, second-hand LP's, and even on the Maugrim 7" lathe cut EPs. We've also received our stock of the Vestiges/Panopticon split LP from Replenish Recs, and we still have limited stock of Yellow Eyes, Owl's Blood, and Monument from Dead Section Records (restocks arriving soon)!

We'll also be getting stock of some of Van Records' releases later this week, including the latest Ruins of Beverast DLP, Ruins of Beverast's re-presses, the Wolves In the Throne Room demo LP and more. The following week, we should also have some of Altare Productions' LP's in.

The samples I heard from the promo vids reminded me a bit more of Blut Aus Nord's 777 releases than the slower, doomier stuff I'd heard on Rain Upon the Impure or Unlock the Shrine. The things that stick in one's mind when you're working on product listings

Edit: It seems I had "Ordeal" stuck in my head at the time and should have spent more time listening to stuff like "Monument" or "A Failed Exorcism"._________________Fragile Branch Recordings

9/30/13 UPDATE:
Our next two cassette releases by Ancst and Frater Ximenes Is Dead are now available for pre-order. The Ancst CS is limited to 100 copies and comes with a two-sided mini-poster/lyric sheet. The FXID tape will come with a screenprinted patch. Also, our first ever vinyl LP release is now available for pre-order: Wanderlust's "Monolithes Entre Ruines". The Wanderlust LP's initial pressing is limited to 150 copies, and there are options for a two-sided shirt print and a CD copy of the album if you desire. The cassettes will ship out on or before October 22nd, and the official release date for the LP is October 29th.

We will be placing a re-order with Van Records in the coming week or so to acquire more stock of the Ruins of Beverast's "Blood Vaults" DLP, the other RoB represses, and some of the Urfaust LP's/re-releases.

10/7/13 UPDATE:
We've received stock of Falls of Rauros' "The Light That Dwells In Rotten Wood" DLP and the Alda "Tahoma" DLP re-issue from Replenish Records. Both are available in the store and ready to ship out._________________Fragile Branch Recordings

10/24/13 UPDATE:
Less than 1 week remains to pre-order a copy of the Wanderlust "Monolithes Entre Ruines" LP or t-shirt and be entered into a drawing for one of the LP test pressings!

The Ancst and Frater Ximenes Is Dead cassettes have been released and are now available in the shop, along with a few remaining Ancst t-shirts of various sizes. Once they're gone, there will not be any re-prints!

Also, we've placed a restock order with Van records and should be receiving more copies of The Ruins of Beverast's four double-LP releases as well as a few different Urfaust albums/ep's.
